American* controlled d the district's political destinies. *To ? the people of Oyster Bay, of which t jthe Second district .Is the scat,-. "Ted- a dy" was almost a god. His word was t their law. /Then the grhn reaper v iwept him away. " I But today there is another "Ted?y" s Roosevelt growing up among the folks p of v rural Oyater. Boy, Lieutenant ^ Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, son bf, the ereat leader, and he has ambi-1A tions . to follow in the well-marked | g footprints of his ' honored father.i j Starting from the bottom of the laid- j der, he ie a candidate for the rtite assembly on the Republican ticket. I And opposing him who, us a lleutcn- j ant-colonel,, was second in co^ of an entire regiment, is a former (buck private, Eiias RafT, iae son u? tailor. Thus , the man who led thousands into battle and the man who a few t months ago accepted as an inviolate j law every command of the' other, c have been placed in thef/same plane. s Though one is rtch ana the other . ?1 's a struggling lawyer, Democratic ^ America lias accorded both equal y rights in the race for public office. ? Ellas Raff came Into the race al- _ a mogt unknown, unheralded. When s the Republicans nominated Lieuten- ( Colonel Roosevelt - the pcoplq f ^poke of his election as a foregone ^ conclusion. In fact, some of the lead- j 'ng Democrats of Oyster Bay thought t would-be wise to: indorse him and ^ assure his election. But the leaders j jf tNofth. Hempstead, a townshlp thd r ftze^ot Oy'stee Bay, Objected, and ^ Kkff was nominated by the Demo- . ?ats. c The nomination aroUscd little $n? ^ thusiasm even in RafTs own party; ^ tt was done as a maner 01 iunn. c Then Raff jnounted the pl.itform^for his first speech. "My hat is In the t . fnji and U is not my father's hat, ^ either," he said. The Democrats realized they have picked a "live ^ wire." It looked like Mr. Roosevelt's "walkover" would wind up in an exrace,"; and according t?v all reports from the'district the buck ^ private's chances are fmprovingHlaily. 8 The following events in the lives of j the two men may show the contrast ' between them: * c Thaodote Roosevelt?son of 'an ex- c president of the United States.

(New-.York-<Tril?nne.) While the war was on<everyone exept the buyers and sellers was too usy to nollce.it, but a thriving: trade as been driven in diamonds in Amerm the last year or so. As a result it is declared thet today nc-half .of the world's gems are ownd in the United states. But more than that, an overlooked base of the war has been the buildig up of a great diamond-cutting inlUstry on this' side of &e Atlantic.

The extent of the increased volume if diamond cutting In America i^duilcated by n few significant figures. ?rior so 1914 about two-thirds of the iamonds .imported were classed an cut but not set,"'and only about onebird-of-the .total value was classed s "uncjtt;-"' The diamond cutting of he world was carried on before the mr chiefly -in Holland, Belgium and France; and was, of course, entirely uspcnded in Belgium and in considerbie' part in France, and materially afected in the Netherlands. a consequence, the value of a cut llamond Imported into the United itates dropped from |2?\000,000 in >13 to |9;?00,000 In 1916.- The year 9 IS for the flr^t time showed a greater alue in uncut imports than ., those las&ed as "cut but not set." In the very atcst period, the eight months ending lept. 1918, the imports 6fv unsut tiamonds exceeded 810,000,000 and the :Houp "cut but. not set" ; dropped to ti? r.rio noo: There are other unusual phases ot he business developed by the wa?. 3cfore 1914 only a small proportion >f the diamonds entering the United States, came, by way of Grea.4 Britain, ilthough 98 p<T cent, of: tho'world'J llamonds are produced in her South tifrlcan colonies. Of the $2?,000,00u vocth of diamonds imported in 1914, ill 'of which precedo'd the war, only ibout |6,(M)0,000 worth came from Jront Britaih, nearly $10,000,000 worth rom Belgium, approximately $8,o6o,100 worth from Holland and about 2.000,060 worth from France. By 1917 the supply from Belgium tad entirely terminated; that from iYance was of only, one and one-hall ailllon dollars value; and froht Engand about $13,000,000. The Increase n importations from England occurred almost exclusively in the uncut liamonds, which she had apparently Irawn direct, from her South AfricaD colonios - and sent in the uncut form o the United States, which then acively developed the diamond cutting ndustry. "fhe value of the diamonds in the Jnlfed States at the present time is pproximately more than $ 1,000,00t>,g$u. . *As early a3 1900 a distinguished llamond expert of the United States aid: "It-may be safely said that -COO,000,000 worth of diamonds are iwned in the United States," and a ompllation just made uy the Natloinu Hty Bank of New York shows that he "value of diamonds Imported since 900 exceeds 5500,000,000. GChis alone rould bring the total valjie of the d'aaonds of the country above the billon dollar line, but when it is'remefnered that 5176,00O,tf(M worth of diaaonds.Imported since 1900 came in m ESTATE AGENCY FOE^ALB v 82 Acres?Land, 5-room new dwellig: 1 4,-n>om tenant house; 4 1-2 miles f York. ..
